Return of the King, Dominating the City

Chapter 1876 - 1750: Utterly Humiliated

Upon hearing Song Yun’s domineering words, Zhou Shangtian’s face turned as black as a storm cloud.

He glanced at Little Sword God, then at Song Yun, not daring to act rashly.

He considered himself capable of dealing with Song Yun, but Little Sword God was a top student of Senior Sanjian; he worried he would not be able to handle him and feared offending Senior Sanjian.

"Fight if you want! Hmph, such arrogant talk indeed!"

As Zhou Shangtian was in a dilemma, a voice rang out.

The crowd turned their heads and saw a gaunt-faced middle-aged man approaching Zhou Shangtian.

Zhou Shangtian exclaimed in surprise, "Zhu Ji!"

"Who is this person?" Song Yun frowned and asked Qiu Chumeng, who was in a daze beside him.

Qiu Chumeng quickly replied, "This person is the Family Head of the Zhu Family, called Zhu Ji. The Zhu Family is about equal to the Zhou Family in power, and the two families have deep ties, with younger generations often betrothed to each other through intermarriage. Zhu Ji is Zhou Shangtian’s brother-in-law. His appearance now likely means he’s here to help Zhou Shangtian."

Song Yun nodded and looked at Zhu Ji, seeing his sinister gaze, clearly not a good person.

Zhu Ji noticed Song Yun looking and glared with wide eyes, saying, "Young man, you’re quite arrogant. Could it be that you’re looking to challenge the Zhou Family and Zhu Family?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people squeezed through the crowd, glaring angrily at Song Yun.

Needless to say, these were certainly Zhu Family members.

"Interesting, relying on numbers, huh."

Song Yun chuckled; this Zhu Ji was really brainless, already at S-level yet thought a few B-level younger disciples could help?

Zhu Ji puffed out his chest, said loftily, "You have Little Sword God as a friend, Zhou Shangtian has me as a brother-in-law, isn’t that okay? If you have the ability, you can bring people too. We just want to compare who has a bigger backing, who’s more arrogant, how about it?"

"Who said anything about competing with my brother in arrogance?"

Just then, a playful voice came from the outer edge of the crowd.

Upon hearing this voice, Song Yun and Little Sword God both showed surprise.

Soon, a man walked in from the edge of the crowd.

This man was wearing a purple suit, smiling, walking with swagger, very flamboyant.

"Juan Mao." Song Yun exclaimed with joy, going up to give Juan Mao a big hug, completely unexpected to meet Juan Mao here.

Little Sword God approached and hugged Juan Mao, saying, "Brother William."

Juan Mao laughed, "Don’t call me William, I changed my name to Luo Zheng!"

Seeing Song Yun’s trio chatting among themselves, Zhou Shangtian and Zhu Ji looked very unhappy. Zhou Shangtian asked Juan Mao, "Kid, who are you?"

"Kid, who are you?" Zhou Shangtian asked Juan Mao sullenly.

Juan Mao smiled and looked at Zhou Shangtian, "My name is Luo Zheng, and I’m Song Yun’s brother. I just heard you guys saying you’d compare who has the bigger backing with Song Yun, so I wanted to see who’s so bold as to provoke my brother."

Hearing this, those around were completely dumbfounded.

Song Yun was arrogant, Little Sword God was cold and stern, now Luo Zheng arrived, even more domineering.

These young people were simply arrogant to no end.

Zhou Shangtian and Zhu Ji looked grim, with so many people watching, if they didn’t act, they’d lose face.

"Hmph, a few youngsters, today I’ll stand in for your elders and teach you a lesson!"

Zhou Shangtian snorted coldly, giving Zhu Ji a glance, both simultaneously attacked Song Yun’s trio.

Song Yun stood at the back, remaining still because he knew Juan Mao and Little Sword God combined were enough to defeat the opponents.

As the battle was about to erupt, a person suddenly dashed out from the side, intercepting Zhou Shangtian and Zhu Ji, with their back to Song Yun’s trio.

"How can this be without me!"

That person’s figure moved, attacking Zhou Shangtian and Zhu Ji.

"Master Bei!"

"Master Bei!"

"The high priest!"

Seeing this person, Song Yun, Little Sword God, and Juan Mao all exclaimed simultaneously, showing joy.

This trip, none expected everyone would reunite here.

As Master Bei rushed towards Zhou Shangtian and Zhu Ji, just upon engaging, he fought one against two, yet didn’t fall into a disadvantage, shocking everyone around.

Little Sword God had Senior Sanjian as a master, Juan Mao had guidance from his own father, both were disciples of SS-level masters.

And Master Bei was the next High Priest of Taishan, among them the one with the highest status.

Suddenly, Song Yun felt happy for his brothers.

Seeing Master Bei and the opponents fighting, Song Yun’s trio were about to step in and help, planning to quickly handle the opponents, then reunite with the four brothers.

However, unexpectedly, after just a few strikes, Zhu Ji and Zhou Shangtian leaped back, shouting, "Wait."

"What, not going to play?" Song Yun teased.

Zhou Shangtian and Zhu Ji indeed dared not continue, for they couldn’t beat Song Yun’s four.

Just Master Bei alone was difficult enough, let alone with the other three, they could crush them effortlessly.

Zhou Shangtian gazed at Master Bei, bowed, "You used Taishan Sect’s techniques earlier, whose disciple are you?"

"I’m called Master Bei." Master Bei said calmly, "As for my master, sorry, I don’t wish to exchange pleasantries, so no comment."

Expecting this Taishan disciple to be more amiable, unexpectedly, he maintained such an attitude, causing Zhou Shangtian’s face to redden.

Upon hearing Master Bei’s name, someone nearby exclaimed, "Ah! Song Yun, Little Sword God, Luo Zheng, Master Bei, aren’t these the four who destroyed the Tang Family?"

"Ah! So it’s them, these four are notoriously infamous, back then because Little Sword God’s arm was severed by Tang Xiaoyun, they went and wiped out the Tang Family."
